UnrealI Randomness

OK. I really don't like UnrealI, but since Linux is cool and UnrealI doesn't run under Linux, and I like tinkering...

First off, the salient point of this exercise: unreali-install.run (3.8M) - If you have UT installed in Linux, and an UnrealI CD, put the CD in the drive and run this baby. Last modifed 2002-12-09
- README.Chunky - the README included in it
- A screenshot (328k) of the installer
- If you don't own a copy of this game, you can get it here: http://www.tuxgames.com/details.cgi?gameref=87. Tuxgames rock, and I seriously recommend you buy it here. And if you do, you even get a copy of my installer in the box with it (=
Because AcidUT is so f***ing cool, and because I'm in control of this installer, AcidUnreal is actually included in this distribution. Just have a look at README.Acid.
In response to many questions:
- I still don't like this game
- Multiplayer. DM Works just fine between clients that are all /this/ client. ie, machines that are running UnrealI as is installed by the installer on this page. It will not connect to genuine UnrealI servers, as it's fundamentally a different piece of networking software.
- CO-OP Apparently doesn't work, but as I've never played this game online at all, ever, I can neither verify not contradict that claim. I think that hacking at it until CO-OP works /MAY/ be within my humble grasp once I have a working computer again.
- In fact, straight from the proverbial horse's mouth:

We changed a ton of stuff between Unreal 1 and UT, including the binary
network stream format, and the layout of the gameplay classes.  So let me
put it this way: It would probably be easier to get Unreal Tournament to
connect to a Quake server! :-)

The obligatory screenshots are here. This page is fairly large as the thumbs clock in at 1.1M [there's another page linked from that one].

Yes, I hijacked the UT splash screen.

For those of you who came here looking for something to to with Return to Na Pali, another icculus.org devotee, this man, has made an installer available, based on some of the code found on this page.

Muchos Kudos goes to:

Edward Rudd, for your unreal scripting expertise
Matt Matthews and Doug Dahl, for the inpiration for this whole exercise
Various others, mentioned in the README.Chunky
